“And of course a bunch of Iranians flew those planes on 9/11...that’s what the propaganda being spread about is designed to lead us to believe.”


The Iranians, Chinese and Russians did not stop being our adversaries because of 9/11. And as big states with the resources of entire nations at their disposal, they have always been far more dangerous than mere mass casualty terrorists.

Sunni al Qaeda zealots *are* the *lesser* of two evils in the same way Japan was the lesser of two evils during WWII. Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. But it was Germany that had any prospect of conquering Europe and, through that, eventually the world.

Al Qaeda is now reduced to teams of pickup terrorists. Whereas Iran has an ongoing nuclear weapons program, and ballistic missile development to deliver these weapons. And let’s not forget that Iran was a key sponsor of al Qaeda operations. What many people don’t quite understand is that terrorism is an inconvenience we should target vigorously, but it’s large state actors that continue to be our most dangerous threats.

Saif al-Adel and Saad Bin Laden are believed to have ordered the attacks from Iran.[10] According to Seth G. Jones and Peter Bergen, the bombings were planned by al Qaeda in Iran, with apparent Iranian complicity.[11][12] In May 2003, then-State Department official Ryan Crocker provided information on the upcoming attack to Iranian officials, who apparently took no action.[13] Saad was killed in a drone strike in Pakistan in 2009.[14]

ISIS Sunni's are a bunch of murdering, raping thugs. But they're anti Shia Iranian murdering, raping thugs.

And every air strike Obama performed against them solidified Iranian control over Iraq and Syria.

And the Shia militias are murdering, raping thugs too, they just don't post it on the Internet like they're 13 year old girls.
